Group C

[chips and gravy]

Can the Danes and the Swedes engineer it so they both go through to the Quarter finals?

Can Italy beat Bulgaria by more than 2 goals?

Should be an interesting evening on Tuesday!

If Italy don't go through but win I am sure they will not be happy

The draw will suit the Sweds a lot more since that will see them through. With both games on at the same time I cannot see how the Danes dare risk playing for the draw since Italy will be sure to score against Bulgaria.

If Italy fail to beat Bulgaria, Denmark and Sweden will advance to the quarter-finals.

If Sweden do not lose to Denmark, Sweden will advance to the quarter-finals.

If Italy win their game against Bulgaria the winner of Denmark-Sweden will join Italy in the quarter-finals.

If Italy beat Bulgaria and Denmark-Sweden ends in 0-0 draw, Sweden and Italy will advance to the last eight.

If Italy beat Bulgaria by two goals and Denmark-Sweden ends in 1-1 draw, Italy will join Sweden in the knock-out stages. However if Italy beat Bulgaria by just one goal and Denmark-Sweden ends in a 1-1 draw, Denmark will join Sweden in the quarter-finals.
If Italy beat Bulgaria and Denmark-Sweden ends in 2-2 draw, Sweden and Denmark will advance to the quarter-finals.

In the event of a tie, Uefa criteria will be used to separate the teams.
